Since our old Holonet is going to be taken down, I'm saving all of the character bios that have been posted. They will be in this thread for when you want to put them on the Wiki. This thread does not contain any IC-usable information, just in case anyone is in the espionage mood.

Born the son of Eddard and Catelyn Baelish, Petyr was born into a very high-ranking aristocratic group of nobles in the high-class of Coruscant. His father, Eddard was the aide to the Galactic Senator from Sarapin. Unfortunately, when the Republic became the Galactic Empire, his father and mother were both killed for accused treason. His emotions were mixed fury and immense sadness, but Petyr suppressed these emotions to an almost dangerous extent; completely forgetting about his parents or former life. He was moved with his uncle, and Petyr then attended the Imperial Academy.

He graduated with a fleet command degree, but when he was given his first capital ship to captain, he fled to Lannisport and met someone that would change the course of his life: Tyrion Lannister. When Tyrion Lannister was given ownership of the planet Devaron and Petyr was offered command of the fleet, he eagerly accepted. Content at the time, as he was finally doing the one thing that he desired, ordering lesser men about. He heartlessly leveled the planet Phu’s capital and led the ground assault, but this is when he began plotting. When the Republic first began, Lannister promised to share power and authority with him. It appeared this was not so. Finally, Petyr’s plans came to a climax with the assassination of Tyrion Lannister by ‘Disgruntled Phuun Politicians’. He was quick to act, and in an emergency senatorial meeting he seized supreme authority and reformed the Republic into the Sovereignty, nearly mimicking the rise of the Empire. Just as quickly, he severed alliances established under the Lannisters and abolished the Senate, keeping every power to himself.

Biography:
Born on Coruscant in the year 25016, Swali was the son of celebrated Imperial general Mau Onca and his wife Flimi, who died in childbirth. With no mother figure in his life, he grew up with the Imperial military.

His teen years were spent in public school where he was an average student. His teachers noted that his lack of motivation had little to do with laziness. It was that he did not care for public school, knowing his destiny lay with the Imperial navy. His father scolded him, not for his performance in school, but for his military branch choice. Being an army general, he didn't approve of his son being a "prissy little navy girl."

Despite his father's wishes, Swali joined the naval academy. Whatever motivation he lacked in school, it was apparent that he was saving it for the Empire. While not the top of his class, he was ranked highly in the academy. It was said by his peers "You're really the best, they just don't like how you do things." Indeed, many of his records cited his techniques as "Unorthodox" and "Rash."

He served as an Ensign on the Executor following the Battle of Endor up until its eventual decomission. The diminishing Empire could not longer pay for the large battleship. He was furious with the seceding planets and made it his personal mission to see the Empire return to its former glory.

He would get his chance. He steadily was promoted until he was a Captain and assigned to the Imperial Star Destroyer Mark I Terminator. With a loss of command, it was one of the few choices left to naval high command.

His first missions detailed the conquering of several key worlds to the Empire, including many core worlds on the Perlemian Trade Route, Csilla, Kuat, and participated in the Battle of Corellia and the Battle of Fondor. He was soon made a Commodore and given a squadron. He even had the honor of serving directly under Lord Vader.

Later, after the DRWP was created and declared an Imperial enemy, he would be the one to order the base delta zero that rendered Corulag uninhabitable. Sometime after, he took place in the Battle of Brentaal with a squadron of Akula-class Star Destroyers and the Imperial flagship Traumatize.

Later, he would be made an Admiral and given a prestigious command: the newly reformed Death Squadron, serving as flag officer on the Executor-class Star Destroyer Traumatize. Keeping an eye on him was Mara Jade. It was not much of a secret that he had the capacity for going renegade and invading the Galactic Alliance. He had a sort of infatuation for Mara. However, duty and the military (and possibly Miss Jade) interfered with any sort of romance. She left to be a judge at the trial of Flint, leaving him on the Traumatize.

In a rather rash move, he made a sudden career shift. He had heard of a new branch of Intelligence, IntelForce. He wanted to join immediately. Taking advantage of Jade's absence, he devised a crafty plan to sneak off the Traumatize and onto Yinchorr to be trained as an IntelForce operative. He arrived to find out that his assumption of having to be assigned was wrong. All he had to do was sign up.

In IntelForce, he was somewhat behind in physical strength, but learned the melee techniques well. His true forte was firearm combat. Indeed, he learned to become the top sharpshooter of the organization.

When the war began, he was torn between two worlds. The Empire called on him to be their greatest naval commander and he was also needed in IntelForce. Throughout the war, he would finish a naval battle only to be immediately carried to the ground. He was quite alright as a respectable gunslinger and sniper, he found his dad's approval in the organization. Mau still thinks he should "Stop being a prissy little navy girl, and be a man full time."

Biography:
Alex was born on the jungle world of Haruun Kal. Born into a particularly violent, and long lasting clan war, Torr grew up learning everything he could about hand-to-hand, and bladed combat. Although, Korunnai by birth, Alex could not, for reasons even today he cannot understand, touch the force, as all other Korunnai could. Due to this, he was unable to form a force-bond with Akk Dogs. Such creatures were very useful in the dense, highland jungles. Surviving on quick thinking, and combat skill alone, Alex became known throughout Haruun Kal by rival tribes as the Sha-tum Ta, the Silent Blade. He could best any warrior who challenged him, with ease.

At the age of 14, the war between the tribes was at an all-time bloody high. The body count was rising faster than anyone could count, and Alex was called upon to help Clan Torr. His mission, a particularly dangerous one, even for one with the force on his side, was to sneak into a rival tribe's land, and slaughter them all in their sleep. It was a distasteful task, in his opinion, but he did it to help his clan. In one night, he killed more than 35 men, women, and children in their sleep, and slipped out before sunrise. The war ended, and he was hailed as a hero, although he felt as low as a common murderer.

He lived the next 6 years in relative peace with Clan Torr, honing his combat skills as best he could, becoming ever more deadly, but also more bored. The jungle no longer held a challenge to him, as it did with other Korunnai. He could live for more than a week in the dense jungle without sustaining a single injury.

At 20, Alex ventured into Pelek Baw, and lived there for 2 years, murdering corrupt militia officials whenever he felt bored.

Feeling that he could do more in the galaxy, Alex left Haruun Kal, his home for more than 22 years, and joined the Galactic Empire, earning a place in Imperial Intelligence, completing various assassinations, and information gathering missions. His efforts eventually brought him to the rank of Agent. After working for 5 years in Imperial Intelligence, Supreme Moff Ams Jendob personally delivered a new assignement to Alex. His assignment, a difficult one, was to infiltrate the Killiks, a race of insects who were becoming an ever-increasing problem for the Empire. For a year, Alex served with the Killiks, commanding their fleets, and bringing them minor victories. He would occasionally make contact with Jendob over the year, once every two months or so, and deliver reports of the Killik command structure, their forces, movements, and plans for the galaxy.

After a year of the deep-cover intelligence mission, Alex felt it was no longer safe for him to remain near the Killiks, noting their new policies, and command changes. He knew he would be assassinated if he stayed in command of his fleet. Commandeering a shuttle, Alex made his way to Coruscant, from Jabimm, and made his report to Supreme Moff Jendob, who promoted him to a Commander on the spot.

Shortly afterwards, Alex was given orders to take command of the ESD Prestige, Supreme Moff Jendob's command ship, and head to Rendilli, to bring the planet into the Empire. After days of negotiation that went no where, Alex decided it would be quicker, and ultimately an all around better tactic to just take the planet by force. In his mind, the Empire could not be seen as weak. As he sent his forces, a Killik fleet dropped out of hyperspace. Although he still commanded the Prestige in the battle, Admiral Swali Onca had a more direct control over the battle. Despite the Killik's sudden aggresiveness, they quickly lost their nerve, and fled Rendilli space. Alex, not suprised at this action, turned his attention back to the conquest of the planet. A few days later, Rendilli entered the Galactic Empire.

After that success, Alex returned the Prestige to Coruscant, where Supreme Moff Jendob took control of the ship once again. After that, Alex remained on the ship, undisturbed for the most part, training against various combat droids, that he had modified. He had removed the safeties from them, allowing them to kill their opponent. He scrapped 7-8 droids every session, nearly twice a week, much to the dismay of the technical staff aboard the ship.

One day, after his training session, he was approached by Exarch Shyara Hol. The two spoke for a bit, before he asked her if she wanted a sparring match. She agreed, and the two made their way to the now cleared training room. The woman tossed Alex a training lightsaber, and the two began. Although slightly disoriented by the weapon's operation, he quickly learned how to control it, and sparred the woman for a few minutes. The match, however, was won by Torr. At the time he attributed his win to the fact that the woman was pregnant, and still wishes to spar her once she is physically fit again.

Shortly after their sparring match, Torr was summoned to the bridge of the Prestige, in the middle of the Battle of Corellia, where he observed the battle from the view ports, and tac-screens, taking careful observation of how Jendob handled the battle, revising his own tactics in the process.

Not to long after the battle, Alex approached Ams, and asked for a new assignment, one that would put him in the field more than he was now. Ams told Alex of a new branch of Intelligence, named IntelForce. It was to be an elite unit within the Empire. Alex, excited by the prospect of better training, and increased action in the field, quickly enrolled, and made his way to the covert training facility on Yinchorr.

Training tirelessly, day after day, pushing himself to exhaustion, and many times, physical break down, Alex turned himself into a living weapon, a machine. He was delighted with the various hand-to-hand combat courses, and bladed weapons courses. Excelling in all of them. Near the end of his training in IntelForce, he was un-matched in hand-to-hand, and bladed weapons, in IntelForce, and only came up second to Swali Onca in marksmanship. Alex liked the man, to a point. Although he viewed him as a bit of a fool at first, Swali was a quick learner, and bested him every time in marksmanship. It annoyed Alex, to a point, but he was content with his ability to best him at hand-to-hand, and blades, but still strived to learn more in marksmanship.

Alex is now a valued IntelForce Commander, and is, as always, a fierce warrior.

Biography:
Born on Corellia, James Taggart was the son of the wealthy politician Jonah Taggart, and the Republic Naval Academy Instructor Patricia Taggart. Due to his parents standing, and wishes, James attended private schools all throughout his early childhood. Living a fairly uneventful life up until the age of 18, James had an ever increasing intrest in the Imperial Navy. Powerful, disciplined, feared, and respected. All the qualities of a great military power. Enrolling into the Imperial Naval Academy not two days after his 18th birthday, James quickly excelled in all his studies, rising to the top of his class in nearly everything.

Graduating the Naval Academy at the top of his class, James entered the Imperial Navy as an Ensign. Rising quickly through the ranks over the course of several years, and several battles with Rebel forces, James ascended to the rank of Captain around the time of the Battle of Yavin.

Three months after the Battle of Yavin, the Empire was still reeling from the loss of so many highly ranked personnel on the Death Star. The Rebel Alliance was taking advantage of this to launch a series of attacks to further destabilize the Empire.

One such attack was at Relias III.

A task force, under Admiral Daevyd Scully, had been receiving reports from a spy planted within the local Army garrison. However, Imperial Intelligence located the leak, and dispatched Commander Ams Jendob to "seal it." The mole was eliminated quickly, and the Intelligence agent posted to the planetary garrison, Shayera Hol, coordinated with Jendob, who liaised between Navy and Intelligence to determine a picture of the situation. Reports were showing a likely chance that Rebel ships were massing just outside the system.

Those ships were the Scully's taskforce. He launched the assault, but the local defense squadron as well as Admiral Ledner's escort force engaged the Rebels. Both sides began heavy communications jamming. In the chaos, Ledner's flagship was destroyed. Captain James Taggart assumed command, and managed to rout the Rebel ships, his own ship claiming Scully's flagship for a kill.

The Relias system wasn't attacked again for the remainder of the war, and James was promoted to Vice Admiral.

James' career after the battle of Relias was somewhat uneventful, with several small scale engagements with Rebel forces, but never any large battles. James was promoted several times over the years, after the Battle of Endor, eventually earning Fleet Admiral, due his his excellent service record.

James now commands the Imperial Fifth Fleet. A fleet composed of 30 Akula-class Star Destroyers.

Biography:
Nubis Serin had a rather uneventful childhood. His past is filled with monotny and tedium. Perhaps it is this rather meek childhood that pushed Nubis to the more cut-throat and face-paced world of smuggling and bounty hunting.

He started into that world when he was 14 years old. He sped off from home, without telling his parents, to the mining outpost on his homeworld on Dantooine. There, he met a ship captain by the name of Dag Debremis. The captain took Nubis on as a crew member aboard his ship. Nubis had concocted a story about being homeless and without parents which won the captain over. Nubis had entered a larger world; one that would consume his life for many years to come.

In his travels as a crew member on Debremis' ship, Nubis aquired a small fortune, some property on distant worlds, and met the occasional love interest along the way. It wasn't until he was 23 years old, however, that he purchased his first ship and hired his first crew. It was now Nubis and the galaxy.

The ongoing war between the Galactic Empire and the Rebellion didn't phase Nubis at all. That is, until an unfortunate run-in with an Imperial cruiser near Kessel. Nubis lost his ship, his crew was seperated, and he found himself with new badges of courage on his face; badges which would remind him of his more adventurous days.

Nubis managed to bargain for his release from the Imperial prison on Dathomir and made his way back to Dantooine. There, he met back up with his old mentor Debremis. With a new ship, new crew, and a new outlook on life, Nubis was free once more.

Biography:
Lance Jerak, once Field Marshal and Chief of the Nespis Army, Lance fled and began a life of hermitage, though it did not last long until the Nespis Government found and employed him again.

Born into a middle-class family on Ryloth, Lance always knew a small taste of luxury, but still knew the value of a credit. His father, a main advisor to the Mayor was respected among the others of the town, and his stats made him half a celebrity, and his son a quarter.

However, until he turned 16, his unremarkable life turned adventurous when he ran away from home, hoping to gain a fortune and return home to find a wife and buy some land, or join the military. He never did make much money, but subsequent events never did give him time to join the service, though they eventually sent the service to seek him.

After a vacation to the rolling plains of Dantooine, he was drawn to the ruins of an ancient Jedi academy, and was taught the way of the Jedi by some lingering spirit. Though he left the temple a padawan, he had learned much in his training.

He was soon asked to take part in an expedition agains the Dark Side by Master Yoogle, and accepted. The first stop was Endor, where he met Chief Tarpin, a former Ewok and currently cyborg abomination, who demanded to be taken with them, who had grown tired of the monotonous life of the Chief of a group of fuzzy little people.

The Expedition managed to wrangle some Condor Dragons and then to Ruusan, and faced down the seven Dark Jedi. Lance incapacitated Yun, the youngest, while Tarpin struck down and killed Boc.

Their whereabouts where both unknown, but Tarpin ended up on Endor, and Lance soon found the planet himself. Tarpin awarded the jedi with a freighter, as he had no more need of it, and accepted to join the Republic of Nespis as a Field Marshal, and the Chief of the Army.

He then fell in love with Kristina Stark, a Nespisian whom he met in a nightclub built on the ruins of a quaint tavern in Nespis VIII. The two soon agreed to marry.

When he recieved news from James Vita about information the Jedi would find useful, he found it too coincidental that this had nearly coincided with his engagement to Kristina, and so agreed to meet James in his ship, brinigng Tarpin, should things go awry.

They did, and James captured the two, though Lance managed to convince him to let Tarpin go free. This backfired on Vita, as Tarpin signaled a Terran fleet led by the newly appointed Admiral Julian Noble to stop Vita from escaping with Lance. A fleet from Nespis soon followed, hoping to save their Field Marshal.

Vita escaped into hyperspace soon after, but luckily the Nespis fleet had managed to track Vita's vessel and followed him right into the waiting clutches of a Sii-Ruuk fleet.

Lance, Vita and Karh Deltan, the Captain of the Nespis fleet, were taken aboard the Sii-Ruuk's flagship, and served a meal of Sii-Ruuvi food, after which James was payed by the Sii-Ruuk, after which, after some time of waiting around, Lance and Deltan were both let go.

Lance flew back to Nespis, angered greatly that the whole experience had nearly cost him a chance to the Galaxy's biggest party. He later learned that Vita would be attending, despite his numerous complaints, and refused to go himself. However Kristina insisted on going, so Lance sent Tarpin with her.

After only one night at the Galaxy Ball, events unfolded that would change the group of friend's lives forever. Kristina was kidnapped, and Tarpin found that she had been taken by a religious fanatic to an asteroid near Nespis VIII, where numerous temples had been built from the very rock by some ancient species. Tarpin brought Lance with him.

They found the bodies of several other men kidnapped long before, and eventually came to the last temple on the asteroid.

Inside, the 'Zealot' stood over her bleeding body, a sword in hand. Tarpin's chest-mounted heavy repeating blasters turned the front half of his body to a singed, cratered wasteland, and Lance rushed to his love's side.

She soon died, and Lance left the temple.

Then, seeking to hide away for the rest of his life, Lance was pulled out of Hyperspace by a hut near Tatooine. He recieved no transmission, but was instead tractored into a Carrack-class Cruiser.

After killing a contingent of the Hutt's gaurds, Lance was captured and brought before the Hutt.

Using every ounce of the force he had, he popped open the Hutt, killing him, and simultaneously killing the Hutt's guards. The rest of the crew allowed him safe passage, even returning his lightsaber.

He then found a small island on Naboo, built a shack and lived for a year as a hermit, occasionally fending off Bounty Hunters interested in his pricy head, which had probably quadrupled in value thanks to his Hutt-capade.

Biography:
As a child, James Vita excelled at his studies and was expected by his parents to become a respected politician. All was not well with this particular child, however. At school he was a bullied by beings jealous of his talents. He developed psychological defects as a result of this torture. Eventually it became too much and he lost control, putting one of his tormentors in hospital. Though his crime was one of self-defense, he was treated harshly by his school’s administration and expelled. His fall from grace was not to end there. Horrified by the violent streak in their son, James’ parents threw him from their home, and disowned him. All trace of him was removed from their home and their lives.

Overcome with grief and anger, James stole a speeder and led authorities on a high speed chase through the skies of Coruscant, narrowly escaping death when he crashed it in a tunnel. He was in hospital for two weeks and in rehab for a further four. After this he was sent to prison for his crime, where he was sodomised by two older inmates. He was in prison for five years before he eventually lost control again, this time killing the pair, a crime which landed him in Kessel prison. Life in Kessel was hard on young James, but he managed to survive by befriending an ophthalmologist who worked for a terrorist organization. The doctor was in prison for multiple counts of murder. He taught James how to fight, instilling in him a killer instinct that would change his life forever. After five years of training, James was ready for the doctor’s final gift, an artificial shine job on his eyes, one which would allow him perfect vision in the darkness of Kessel’s mines. Six months after this procedure, James, under the guide of the doctor, started a riot in the mines. Several guards and hundreds of inmates were killed. In the chaos, James and the Doctor escaped.

It was then that James learned a valuable lesson; trust no-one. The Doctor abandoned him shortly after their escape and left him to fend for himself. He had learned astrophysics while at school, and had undergone simulator training as a fighter pilot as part of an extracurricular activity. Using these skills, he stole an old X-Wing and hid out on Nar Shaddaa. He was in hiding for ten years before his sanctuary was invaded. He found out that there was a large price on his head when several Bounty Hunters and mercenaries attempted to capture him and claim this bounty. All were unsuccessful. This further enhanced his reputation as a stone cold killer, and more than doubled the bounty. He was leaving Nar Shaddaa when a figure from his past emerged from the oblivion. The Doctor was back, and had attracted a large amount of attention from local authorities. James took care of this problem in a way that only he could. For his efforts he got a blaster bolt in the back. He survived, but was arrested and sent to an unnamed world, called as such because of the atrocities commited on the inmates by their bloodthirsty captors.

Though he had to pay for the crimes of himself and the Doctor, James realized that he had been given a final lesson; that of survival. If he survived this prison he truly would be ready for whatever life threw at him. As he soon learned, it was not that simple. He had to endure the predatory inmates, cruel guards and horrific conditions. The former was a simple task, no more than he had endured at Kessel, but the latter two were a definitive shock to the system. When a prisoner attacked him he could simply beat them up or kill them, but when the guards attacked he could run, in which case they would hunt him down and beat him more, or he could endure their beatings in the hope that they would tire quickly. The conditions he had to endure wore him down, until he learned to work with them, and make them play to his strengths. Once he had achieved this, he began to plot his escape. Once again he incited a riot, whipping the inmates into a murderous frenzy. This time was different to Kessel in the fact that he left not a single guard alive to call for backup. It was five years since he escaped from Kessel and twenty since he had seen his parents. A prison such as this was not in any official records, and was quickly forgotten after James left.

This was a chance for normality for James, but the killer instinct the Doctor instilled in him refused to leave his psyche, and he was fired from every job he succeeded in applying for. At this point he accepted that fact that he would never have a normal life, and started looking in the underworld for a job. One unwitting application came when he was minding his own business in a bar. A small, runty looking man was alone in a booth when two burly scumbags came in and accosted him. James intervened and killed both men with his bare hands. The man revealed himself to be a powerful underworld figure. He arranged for the two bodies to be disposed of and took James to his establishment. For the first time in his life, James was content. The authorities never left him alone, though, and were always hauling him off to their headquarters whenever an enemy of his boss went missing. For the most part he was guilty, but with the lack of evidence he was let go time and again. He eventually left the employ of the man, and struck out on his own as a freelancer. There were several small jobs, but none paid very well. He advertised on the holonet and struck gold. Somebody was offering him two billion credits for a simple retrieval operation.

He took the job, and went to Belsavis in search of his quarry. Unfortunately it was not as easy as he had hoped, and his quarry had several bodyguards that had to be disposed of. Still he managed to retrieve them, and hire a smuggler to take him to Manaan, where he was to deliver his cargo. The smuggler obviously recognized him from Kessel, and threatened to return him. James bested him, and forced him to land. Shortly before said landing, James dropped the smuggler out of the landing ramp, critically injuring him. He took delivery of his credits and bought a fighter. After customizing it, he set out for Corellia in search of a job.

While on Corellia, he saved the life of a young Coronet Hotel employee. As had been the case before in his dealings with the authorities, they did not trust him. Fortunately there was little evidence on which they could hold him, and they were forced to let him go. The man intent on killing the young girl had several friends who were not at all happy about how things turned out. They tried to assassinate James, but he escaped and killed both. It seemed that here on Corellia the simple act of taking someone's life had repurcussions in the form of someone else wanting you dead. James was jumped in a bar by two thugs related to his most previous victim. He defeated but did not get to finish the job as the bartender used a silent alarm to call the authorites. He barely escaped the authorities, and chose this moment to leave Corellia to seek his fortune elsewhere.

His fortune came in the form of an invitation to join the bounty hunter's guild. He snuck past the automated defenses to get into the observation room. One of the hunters tried to best him, but she proved to be no match for him. His personal fleet arrived at this point. He took delivery of it, along with a small army of clones. At this point Han Solo decided to take issue with the location of the guild. They moved out to Geonosis.

James left right away for a deep space rendevous with Lance Jerak, Marshal of the Nespis Army. He had previously been hired to capture Jerak alive. He convinced Jerak and his bodyguard, Lord Tarpin of Endor. At his command fifteen Droidekas arrived and apprehended the pair. True to his word, James allowed Tarpin to leave, as he was not mentioned in the deal.

James jumped to hyperspace to another rendevous point with the Ssi-ruuk, his employers. After a brief standoff with a pirate fleet, James was paid out and he left for the Galaxy Ball.

On the first night he was reunited with his father. There was an arguement, and James left. Afterwards he left Coruscant completely for Rattatak.

When he arrived he received conflicting messages from two parties. Shortly after he landed he saved the life of an old man affiliated with the Order to Restore Peace to Rattatak. The man gave him a mission. Defeat the only obstacle left in front of the Order. James accepted and began to make his way north.

He defeated the Necromongers single-handedly and returned to the Order to collect his prize; the promise of control of Rattatak. It was there that he met Tiara Tranada, the Head of Intelligence. The Order betrayed him, but Tiara warned him of the attack. He bested their best assassin, and managed to escape.

James and Tiara returned to Geonosis where they started training. James' father called a few days later and they had another arguement, but worse than the first. James was beside himself with anger. He went to the training room and utterly destroyed fifteen battle droids with his bare hands.

Shortly afterwards he left for Bandomeer, where he asked to become Governor to combat factionalism. He was turned down and returned to Coruscant. He received a job to assasinate Lucious Victorinox and headed for Manaan. He was stopped in orbit by the Alliance fifth fleet, which had been tipped off by his employer. He was caught by the Alliance but allowed to leave the system. Shortly before he entered hyperspace he received a message from Bandomeer. The Governor had accepted his offer.

For the next year James set about eradicating the Factional Elitism. He was largely successful although this was for the most part due to an incident which occurred with a rogue faction operating undercover. James was kidnapped, but managed to kill a small army of mercenaries before being apprehended. He was rescued by Bandomeer Security Force officers led by Tiara Tranada. Every single member of the rogue faction cell was eliminated. Without a strong voice the factional elitism largely disappeared.

After seeing her in action, James pronounced Tiara the Director of BSF Intelligence, saying that she had surpassed him in almost every way. Shortly thereafter he proposed to her, a proposal which she accepted. Only one person, an Intelligence operative, knew of their engagement.

Although he had given up bounty hunting, James was contacted by an employer to go on a fact finding mission to the previously conquered world of Tepasi. There he encountered the Mouth of Noruas. He was given the opportunity to question several people in relation to the Killik takeover, but was assaulted and arrested for retaliating. He was permitted to retain his weapons and equipment and thus used his commlink to broadcast insulting messages to the galaxy about the Mouth of Noruas. In response the Mouth released thousands of small assassin bugs into James’ cell.

His last stand was watched across the galaxy when he set up a holofeed. James Vita died in Intensive Care on Tepasi.

Biography:
A slender man of defined features. Cyrus' mid-length black hair is usually swept back, lined perfectly against the contour of his head. He prefers clothing dated to antiquities across the galaxy and is usually spotted wearing a black, three-piece suit, pocket chronometer and chain, long overcoat, white, ruffled ascot, and grey gloves. Cyrus is also prone to using a black, white-tipped cane to accent his attire.

Originally registered on Coruscant during the Old Republic, the Bounto bloodline encompasses many fine and renowned people. Most notably was Cyrus Bounto, a gentleman born to pecunious parents who's life was filled with deeds of great circumstance and preponderancy.

Cyrus attended university on Coruscant and educated himself to the ends of a degree in finance. Always a man known to mince and duel with words, he hoped his knowledge in the field would foster a career in business. Successfully so, Cyrus used his eloquence to play markets across the shrinking globe and in relatively short order, he had amassed himself a hefty fortune abstracted from the wealth his family had already attained.

Using that newfound clout, Cyrus stamped his way into some of the highest inner circles in galactic society - even so far as to find himself as an agent of the Illuminatum at one point - though it is believed that he no longer has any ties with the defunct organization.

At present, Cyrus uses the powers of persuasion and manipulation, so corrupted by his greed and malice, to take that which catches his eye. However, to all outward appearances, he maintains an air of dignity, respect, and exquisite charm - leaving those around him perceptively clueless as to his darker designs.

Kol Starskimmer was born on a moisture farm on the dreary and backwater world of Tatooine a year before the devastating Clone Wars stretched across the galaxy. His family, thankfully, was far out of the line of fire and managed to avoid the suffering that so many other families across the Outer Rim and Expansion Region endured. When he was five, he was told of the great wars and how the Empire had stepped into remove the corrupt Republic, and how it had hunted down the remnants of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, which had brought misery to countless worlds.

It was at that point in his life that Kol decided to be just like the brave and heroic Imperials. When he was eleven, he discovered his joy at piloting. Often he would sneak out at night to fly his father’s old landspeeder through the various ravines and canyons that scarred the Jundland Wastes. However, during one such trip he nearly lost his life. Kol stopped to gaze up at the sky one night and didn’t pay attention to where he had stopped. He was nearly killed as a massive Krayt Dragon, angered by the presence of an outsider by its cave, charged him. He barely escaped the canyon and to his homestead, vowing never to wander off so far again.

He still frequently went on rides, but with his father in the passenger’s seat, keeping a watchful eye on his only son. A close encounter with a raiding party of Sand People out by Beggar’s Canyon one afternoon prompted Jack Starskimmer to teach his boy how to shoot a rifle at the age of twelve. Kol became quite proficient, hitting recycled food cans on top of a ridge with ease after two weeks. On the day he turned fourteen, his father allowed him to go with him for a ride in the family skyhopper, across the Dune Sea. Kol became mesmerized by the idea of flying dozens of meters above the ground. So his father taught him how to pilot the skyhopper. Kol was preoccupied for a few years, learning barrel rolls and all manner of maneuvers. However, when he turned eighteen, he expressed an interest in entering the Presbelt IV Naval Academy. His mother and father were proud of him, but were sad to see him leave. He promised to return one day after his first tour of duty before he packed his bags and left on a transport bound for the academy.

Life at the Academy was hard at first for Kol. When he arrived, he was the target of the cadet’s jokes and pranks, due to his backwater homeworld. However, when he surpassed those recruits with ease, they quickly learned that they would rather have him as a friend, rather than a rival. Kol graduated after a year in the Starfighter academy with full marks on all categories. However, he developed a slight problem with insubordination. Often he would unintentionally slip in a snide comment when talking to a superior that often landed him in trouble. However, it was never enough to formally charge him with insubordination, so he managed to get it under control before he left the academy.

His first posting as a TIE pilot was the Star Destroyer Intervention, under Captain Harold Talbot, a veteran of the Clone Wars. It was barely a month before Kol entered his first actual dogfight against a pirate group Intervention was tasked with either apprehending or destroying. During the engagement Kol managed to shoot down a pair of Y-wings, earning him the right to paint a couple of “wishbones” on his fuselage. Over the months, as the Intervention hunted down pirate after pirate in the Naboo sector, Kol earned four more kills, marking him as an ace pilot in the Starfighter Corps and earning him the rank of Lieutenant, and leader of Three Flight in Wayward Squadron. He made good on his promise, and paid a visit to Tatooine on his first shore leave to see his parents. They were both immensely proud of him, and encouraged him to continue serving as a hero.

When the Death Star was destroyed over Yavin IV, the Intervention was one of the many ships that was called to the moon for a retaliatory strike against the Rebel base. Before now Kol had yet to fight a battle against Rebel forces, although he had heard rumors of their deeds. Murdering Imperial citizens, starting riots, inciting terrorism, even going as far as to destroy Alderaan. Kol wasn’t sure if he believed the latter, although he couldn’t see the reason for the Empire to do such a crime. When Intervention arrived in orbit above Yavin IV, Kol was ready. He led Three Flight against a half-squadron of Z-95 headhunters, shooting down ship after ship after ship above the skies of the jungle moon.

For two years he continued to climb the ranks in Wayward squadron until he was finally promoted to Brevet Captain after the squadron’s Captain, Kull, defected to the Rebellion shortly before the battle of Hoth. Kull’s betrayal hurt Kol deep down inside, and he swore that if he ever met his former mentor in the skies, he wouldn’t hesitate to shoot him down. Intervention was assigned to Lord Vader’s personal fleet, Death Squadron, two weeks before the Battle of Hoth. Kol and his squadron participated in the rout at Derra IV, destroying half a dozen transports carrying weapons and ammunition and earning a position on board the flagship, Executor. When the fleet discovered Hoth and invaded the Rebel base, Kol and his pilots were one of the first squadrons launched. They protected the transports from enemy fighters while the AT-ATs and stormtroopers disembarked to engage the Rebels.

After the battle, Wayward squadron received a new addition to fill the gap Kull’s defection had left. Flight Officer Mara Tyll received a warm welcome from the pilots, especially the men, and proved her mettle by shooting down six Rebel fighters within a month, earning her the mark of an ace. Kol was mesmerized with her ever since she joined. She had a way of beginning a casual conversation with someone, then allowing them to unburden themselves with whatever was troubling them by talking to her. She became the squad’s de facto counselor, helping the pilots with their emotional troubles so that they would be fit to fly. However, she was also having a negative effect on Kol. He had trouble concentrating during missions, unable to think about anything but her warm smile and her soft voice, whispering to him as they sat in the pilot’s lounge.

The squadron was rotated off Intervention six months before the fateful Battle of Endor to the Venator Star Destroyer Black Star, under the command of Commodore Kalydon Skirata, a tough Mando officer who had a soft spot for the men and women under his command. Kol continued to struggle with his emotions over the next few weeks, until he finally asked Mara to join him for dinner one evening while they were on shore leave. On that day, their relationship began in earnest. They began seeing each other frequently, in the pilot’s lounge, planetside while on shore leave, in the mess hall, anywhere they could find.

Then Endor came, and the Empire took a massive blow to its morale-and to its numbers. Kol and Mara, however, still stayed together. They fought in over four major military engagements over the next five years and at least a dozen smaller skirmishes. Kol was granted the rank of Commander, while Mara rose to Captain. They stayed together through everything that was thrown at them, and seven years after their first meeting, Kol and Mara were married on Naboo.

When Commodore Skirata was transferred to the Genesis, the entire crew of the Black Star, including Kol, went with him. However, he and Mara agreed that one of them should drop out of the Starfighter Corps, to ensure that at least one of the family would survive. Mara took a posting on board the Genesis as a communications officer, while Kol was granted command of a squadron of new starfighters, the StarFury. He christened it StormHawk squadron, and handpicked the best pilots available to him to place in the squadron.
